I’m visiting my parents in my home country after many years of not being there. I’m hoping my dad’s old pentium 2 laptop is still around.

At least there was an upgrade path from them.

Part of me still does not think Microsoft is going to go through with it. There are too many Windows 10 PCs that will just become infected.

Part of me thinks the government will intervene as I think it could genuinely be a security issue to have so many unsecured devices in the wild.

But, another part of me has no hope for the future.

Sooo… I guess we will just have to wait and see.

I’m so happy that I went intel instead of gen1 ryzen that generation.

I still use it for work and would be so pissed if I needed to buy a new computer just to use Windows 11.

I genuinly need windows or mac for my work. I use linux on my personal laptop.

Long story short, my Dad just got a new computer. (His old was was actually really old, but he could have used Linux.)

Anyway, I told him not to throw out the old computer and that I would take it. He was baffled that I would want it or could even do anything with it.

I am going to set it up as a backup server in the house for my parents and myself as it will be a nice way to have an offsite backup for free.

This is it exactly. I use ChatGPT to double check things when I’m second guessing myself and I use it to make assignments.

Almost everytime, I need to tweak things but it turns 40 minutes of work into 5-10 minutes.

You will not be able to access Jellyfin with Apple relay turned on unless you open ports on your router to access Jellyfin from outside of your house. That’s true even if your in you own home WiFi.

When they were talking about a vpn, they meant that you would be connected to your own vpn server in your home and that Jellyfin is connected to the same vpn.

Makes me think of the episode of south park where all the guys wanted to get testicle cancer so they would have bigger balls.

Not so much about hassle, but cost.

Why spend $1000 on a phone and $1000 on a laptop when just one would do.

Devices like this would solve the problem of carrying a screen and keyboard.

If Android lands this in a good way, I may finally switch off of iPhone. I do not need a laptop and a phone if I can just dock my phone and get my work done.

I do have a desktop at home, but I do occasionally enough need to travel and bring a laptop. It feels kind of like a waste, but a portable monitor, keyboard, and mouse would be great if I could just dock my phone and do my meetings.

Since I host meetings, tablets don’t offer enough functionality.

Thanks! Just bought it in my region it was just over $1 and I loved the original of this game and I love my steam deck

That’s a great point! Maybe they expect a consumer to connect their own mouse if their handheld doesn’t have touch screen or trackpads.

Uhh, dude. Haven’t you heard that Siri is basically useless?

Maybe that’s why she just typed this post instead of inserting the meme.

This was like 15 years ago, but there was a video by Videogamedunky on YouTube where he prank called places.

I was laughing so hard in my bed at night that I was genuinely wondering if I’d gone crazy.

Not sure why I found it so funny at the time. Maybe I was a bit tired too.

I wonder if people are just losing weight and feeling better about their bodies. So while they are not depressed about their weight, they don’t cope with alcohol or other drugs.

I’m pretty sure all Nintendo consoles have had a problem with being hacked. As far back as the Wii, people were able to run hombrew pretty quickly.

I think Nintendo just sucks at console security or maybe they are a bigger target due to their exclusives.

The problem is when a new game is released that requires an update to a later firmware version.

I think I’ve had it before where the updates applied to the system from the game card.

Unless I misunderstood what was happening. We will have to wait for someone to figure that out.

I’m rooting for someone to home brew the switch 2 ASAP

There are so many studies that stare things “may” or “could” cause cancer but it’s not proven. My wife saw an article that said eating chicken could cause cancer.

Like, how much more natural can you get?

This is absurd! Think of all the 486 cpus that will become EWASTE! LINUX HATES THE ENVIRONMENT!

/s in case not obvious.

I think you’re pretty safe. 1.6 just came out like a year ago. I think you will be good for a few years.
